My friend Brad totaled my black 89 hatchback. Slammed on chrome ponies, black tined windows, Steeda wing, it looked amazing. The asshole was hauling ass down a residential street that came to a dead end. He locked up the brakes and slid right into the the curb head on right front wheel first and of course it had to be the section of the curb where the water drained down so it stuck up further. The front wheel/subframe was crushed all the way to the firewall, the roof was buckled on the opposite and he drove it home with the front end dragging on the ground.
I learned that lesson the hard way. Never let anyone else drive your car. A lot of my friends will let me drive their cars but they know I drive like an old man and I don't drive my own car hard let alone anyone elses.
